Hi Guys,

Here is another “Gordon Mini Spectacular” just about to be packed up and shipped out to Chicago.

As you can see our newest (and best) French “Poilus” have stormed and taken a German strongpoint somewhere in Northern France...Utilizing all of our latest “horizon bleu” French infantry and just two of the little Renault FT17 tanks can make an exciting and interesting dio. Enjoy ...

All the best and happy collecting!

Really like this one. I was just thinking the other day that Gordon would shortly have to turn his hand to some WW1 scenes.
 
Great stuff, lots of detail with some very nice figures and a splendid wee tank. I bet the WW1 boys are wetting themselves.{eek3}{sm5}^&grin
 
I admire your dioramas, but as most of them are not my eras of choice, my mind tends to lump them in with all the other WW2 stuff on here. This is an exception- probably my favorite piece this year, or maybe even to date.

I am not to proud to admit it, ever since the great WW1 TS explosion, well,...I've been wet for a couple of years...:wink2: -- Al

It took me a moment to realize what was going on here. At first, I was like, "why are the Poilus milling around their own bunker like that? The flag on the ground and the marquis over the entrance to the fortification addressed those concerns. Anyway, I like it also. Great concept, and very well done.

Andy and Gordon,

Fantastic Dio.....happy to see such a different angle to the WW1 as the one you have captured here!
WAR OF MOVEMENT allas.....:salute:::salute::
Very nice strong point with trench section....The Krauts are all inside ready to give the Poilus a hard time....they must be holding on to the flame throwers and maxim machineguns to wait the French to get really at point blanc.....and them bummmm......{sm4}

This is one of my all-time favorites. The placement of the figures and the action it depicts is incredible.
